“Because we were new and really needed the work, we were  42  to try harder. We gave National Car Rental our offer and  43  our best effort to get the job finished within ten days. We also  44  them that if we failed, they would be no worse off,  45  they had plenty to gain if we succeeded.

“We got the job and immediately went into  46 . Working at night needed lights, so I rented a machine to produce electricity for the site. Our  47  challenge was to keep the rock mixture  48  enough. All the available water wagons (灑水車) were rented out for the airport construction, and we certainly couldn’t afford to buy a new one.  49 , I got a special  50  to rent fire engine hoses (消防水龍帶) and connect them to nearby hydrants (消防栓); then I  51  held one of those hoses to  52  down the rock.

“Those ten days were filled with challenges that  53  one creative idea after another. Nine days later, the night before the airport opened, National Car Rental was the  54  company that had cars on the parking lot.

“The key to our success was having the  55  to take on any job and then being creative in our approach to getting it done.”

Ban the Band(樂隊)

Every year,out school has a dance for all the students. It’s a little funny seeing friends in clean shoes and trousers or colorful __36____,instead of the usual school uniform.

Most of us think the dance is great _37___ ---even the teachers enjoy being there.___38__,two weeks ago someone said that there would be no ___39___ band this year ---onlu CDs.

“I don’t __40__ it!”Amy cried out during the lunch break.

“Someone said the school couldn’t __41__ a band, and they think it’s too noisy anyway/”added Daniel.

“Well, I don’t think it’s __42__ enough without a band!”declared Angela.” and I’m going to see what can be done.”

Angela was as good as her __43__.In the afternoon she went to see the school headmaster who agreed to give the __44__ some more thought. And he suggested that one __45__for having a band was to increase the price of each ticket from $5 to $10.Angela had to ___46__ out whether the students would like to do that.

“I need all of you to help me,” she __47__to our group before school the next day.”Mr. Berry gave me a list of all the names, and suggested we ask each one their __48__ about the band and the extra cost.”

___49___ the day we asked around as Angela suggested, and wrote down people’s feelings about the band and the cost. We were amazed how much __50__ there was for the band and everyone agreed to pay the extra $5.

“I’m surprised,” smiled Mr. Berry, when we gave him the __51__.”I really thought that only a few people __52__ their band and that the cost would be too high.OK. Angela, your next __53__is to find a good band and line them up for the dance. ”

Angela was all smiles and __54__ the news to Amy and Daniel.”You’re __55__,”smiled Daniel to Angela as he thought how close they came to having a less than perfect dance.

“This Friday we’ll have the yearly Egg Drop Challenge,”said our science teacher, Mr. Baker.“You can work alone or with a partner.”

My friend, Cassie, and I smiled at each other. We always worked on projects

The   37   of the Challenge was simple—to build a protective container to keep an egg from breaking when   38   the stadium wall.

I made my sandwich that afternoon while waiting for Cassie.  39   the butter cream gave me an idea.

“I have a brilliant design for our   40   container!”I said when Cassie arrived.“We can   41   the egg with some butter cream.”

“Why not put the egg in a basket with a parachute(降落傘)  42  ?”Cassie rolled her eyes.“The parachute is better than that stupid idea.”

I couldn’t believe it. Of course we’d had our little   43   in the past, but she’d never called any of my ideas “  44  ”before.

“Then I’ll build mine and you build yours!”

A woman in her sixties lived alone in her little cottage with a pear tree at her door. She spent all her time taking care of the tree. But the children nearby drove her  21  by making fun of her. They would climb her tree and then run away with pears,  22  “Aunty Misery” at her.

One evening, a passer-by asked to  23  for the night. Seeing that he had an  24  face, she let him in and gave him a nice   25  .

The three youths leaned over the metal rails along the sea-wall and watched a few fishermen pull in their nets．About thirty metres away, a boat pulled alongside the slippery steps leading

  36   to the sea．

“Hey, look!” exclaimed Rahim．“Those two men are   37   heavy rocks．I thought we no longer do muscle labour in this technological   38   ”．

“You don’t    39    a crane（起重機）to unload less than a dozen rocks, do you?” smiled Joshua.

“But those men don’t    40    to have muscles at all.” said Michael, rather surprised. Joshua smiled.

“They are    41    labourers who know how to spread the weight of the rocks they

  42  ．See how the man positions the rock just at the slope of his   43  ．Some of the rock’s weight is set   44   his head, some on the right hand and some on the left hand．His body isn’t bent．His legs are well  45  .”

“You’re right, Josh．He may have a small build．  46    he certainly well knows his job．Dear me! And to think we have been studying   47   ! ” Rahim thought about all that was happening．Suddenly, he said, “Technology won’t   48   the human being completely, it appears．”

“I don’t think it will．”   49    Joshua．“You can harvest a crop of potatoes or wheat with one of those large, multi-purpose tractors, but you   50    use that equipment to harvest tea leaves and tomatoes, will you?”

“You can get a computer to    51    multiple-choice assessments, but you cannot get the computer to produce or assess essays, can you?” asked Michael．

“Well, the washing machine leaves my shirt collar quite as   52    as ever — that’s domestic technology for you! ” said Rahim．

“One day, perhaps, there won’t be anybody    53    who can carry a large rock the way those men do．It’s not going to be a very   54    world, I’m afraid.” sighed Michael．

“You’re too much of a pessimist (悲觀主義者），Mike.” said Joshua．“    55   will always be other things that will make the world exciting．”
